CONCRETE MIX DESIGN WORKSHOP

Part 1: Design a concrete mix batchweight using the following design

parameters:

Strength: 35 Mpa
Slump: 150-175 mm
Maximum Aggregate Size: 9.5 mm

Specific Gravity Values:

Water: 1.00
Cement: 3.15
Coarse Aggregates: 2.80
Fine Aggregates: 2.40

CA Unit Weight: 1800 kg/m3

Fineness Modulus: 2.60

Part 2: Convert the computed mix design batchweight to volumetric design

using the following parameters:

Coarse Aggregates Loose Unit Weight: 1700 kg/m3

Fine Aggregates Loose Unit Weight: 1600 kg/m3
